  • Good Morning.

  • I am back in Knoxville at my keyboard and feeling better than I thought that I would after the quick trip to Ga. and back the same day. I am glad that I went because it did help me to go and see the end of a faithful life. It gives us a desire to finish the same way.  I want to do my very best in the few day's that I have left. Four of our preachers spoke at the funeral, It was very helpful to me.

  • Daylight begins here in East Tenn around 7:15 a.m. That is when the cam is the best. I would like to hear from of you who have viewed the Cam, and give me your ideas of any improvenment that I might make. DAD...
  • View Dad's back yard, in the spring you will be able to watch the tomatoes grow, from the start untill they ripen. Dad.

    A Temporary Tomato Greenhouse

    By Kira Hamman

    Here’s a trick I learned from my Mennonite neighbors, who always seem to have ripe tomatoes practically before I even have peas andstrawberries.

    It works at the end of season, too, keeping tomato plants alive and thriving long after Mother Nature would have them in the compost heap.

    You will need:
    • Four to eight sturdy wooden tomato stakes
    • A large, heavy, clear plastic dropcloth (sold at paint stores)
    • A heavy duty staple gun and staples
    • Scissors
    • An established bed of tomato plants

    Here’s what you do:

    1. Drive a tomato stake at each corner of your bed, with an extra at the middle of each side if it’s Read the rest of this entry »

  • Bye  Bye  Dad.

    I am glad your trip was a helpful one. You sure do have a wide variety of visitors here! :) I think the webcam is great where it is where the birdfeeders are visible. I still haven't caught you out in the back yard yet though! I talked to Ian about setting up an outdoor webcam here. He said he didnt see why I would want to do that...lol, but that we will check into it when we have the money to do so. I hope you have a wonderful day today, and thanks for that coffee, I always need that coffee in the morning to help me get going. :) Love, Kelly

    Dear Dad:  Sure am glad you were able to attend your dear friend Taylor's farewell and that the journeys were safe.  Hope you have an opportunity to rest up a bit and relax.  

    That's a beautiful picture of the clouds over your trees.  Nature reminds us all of both how insignificant we are, and how we are all interconnected in the web of life.  It's wonderful!

    My best to you all, and big PURRS to the Princess beauty! ^^
